Syntactic Displacement and its Meaning in Mutanabi’s Poem “Wa Harra Qalbah

Abstract

The present study attempts to cover the structural (syntactic) displacement in Mutanabi’s poem “Wa Harra Qalbah”. It focuses on some clear illustrations from the poem itself, and then it sheds light on some linguistic analysis based on the context that the poem is composed through. This is in order to demonstrate these structural displacements that tackle the poetic discourse in an aesthetic method. Also, the study compares these extracts to the conventional standard patterns aiming to reach the aesthetic and semantic reflections that are meant beneath the lines and would be different from the normal level of speaking. The study, further, deals with discovering the shocking impressions of the poem, as well as surprise that are full of displacement. The philosophy of this comparison undergoes the intention that displacement is put in poetry for the sake of giving strong shocks to the readers. These sorts of displacement also gain the utmost attention of the readers to the heart of the text as well as the semantic entity.
